Join Our Groom Room Team: Assistant Stylist Wanted!
About Us:
At Pets at Home, we’re passionate about pets, and it shows. Our Pet Care Centres across the UK include grooming salons, retail stores, and veterinary practices, all dedicated to delivering the very best care for pets and their owners.
We believe in creating welcoming, supportive environments where team members can thrive. If you share our love for pets and our commitment to excellence, we’d love to meet you.
The Role:
Our Assistant Stylists are vital to the success of our grooming salons. You will deliver the highest standard of pet care, demonstrating basic technical skills in grooming, including handling techniques, using equipment, and pre-grooming preparation.
We will provide training, skills, and knowledge to help you deliver excellent service. We offer a competitive salary and support your growth through comprehensive training and development, including our Earn as You Learn programmes and skill-based pay enhancements.
We seek individuals who are:
* Passionate about delivering great service.
* Flexible, able to work a shift pattern across 6 days a week (closed on Sundays). The minimum contract is 39 hours, with potential for more during busy periods.
* Experience with dogs in a professional grooming or pet care setting is desirable but not essential. Bathing and prepping your own dog does not count as professional experience.
* Preferably experienced in target-driven environments, but not mandatory.
Why Join Us?
We reward and recognize our colleagues in meaningful ways. Our benefits support your mental, emotional, and financial wellbeing, including:
* Competitive pay plus commission, subject to targets
* iPet Level 3 training programme and qualification
* 28 days paid annual leave, increasing to 33 days after 2 years (including bank holidays, pro-rata)
* Extra day off for your birthday
* Life Assurance – 4 times your salary
* Company pension contribution of 4%
* 20% colleague discount across the Group (Pets at Home, Grooming, Vets for Pets), including 30% off personal purchases
We value diversity and encourage everyone to apply, even if your skills and experience don’t perfectly match. If you can bring your unique values and behaviors, we want to hear from you!
Together, we’re better with pets.
